1820 Matron Head Cent. N-13. Rarity-1. Large Date. MS-66 RB (PCGS). An exceptionally well preserved and attractive example of this popular type variety in the Matron Head cent series. Virtually pristine surfaces are smooth, serene and intensely lustrous with a satin to modestly semi-reflective finish from the dies. Plenty of original pinkish-rose color remains on both sides, iridescent copper-brown and lilac-gray patina more extensive on the reverse. Fairly well centered in strike with most major design elements sharp, this is a lovely Gem worthy of the strongest bids. Likely from the famous Randall Hoard of Mint State cents discovered after the Civil War, although far finer than the typical example from that find. Noyes Die State B/A.
